Any combo which includes dp+BD can be combo'd into from cr.B > cr.A > cr.A/cr.B as well as any close heavy starter.
cl.D deals ten points more damage than cl.C and cr.C, but it is much slower than cl.C and has worse range than cr.C, making its usage situational.
Unlike command normal overheads, dp+D is still treated as an overhead even when it is used in combos, and thus XV's damage scaling rules for overheads will apply. Even if you can link into df+D, for example after df+BD, it is preferable to go for df+B instead because you will lose plenty of damage otherwise.

Doubles as a tick throw on block, given 41236C's slower startup. You can use 41236A instead for a more reliable combo.

214A gives you generous amounts of corner carry, so you'll have an opportunity to land an inescapable Bird of Paradise OTG more often than you'd think.

Leaves the opponent behind you but way too far out to get pressure from it. Using EX Tiger Neck Chancery gives you better damage and okizeme for half the price, so do that instead.

Only practical use for Tiger Spin over his other grabs is for super cancels such as this one.

Being a two-hit Climax, Hyper Sonic • Ramón is hit hard by damage scaling. Cancelling Rolling Sobat itself is optimal for Climax combos, as the Hoist sequence will scale it down too much. This doesn't affect EX Volando, as its damage is spread across many hits and it has a tendency to miss when cancelled into from raw Rolling Sobat anyway.

Back to Corner
Very situational anti-air Shatter Strike combo which only works if your back is near the wall. Worth noting because this is the only feasible way for Ramón to land an Advanced Cancel, unless you actually go for qcb,hcf+B/D raw for whatever reason.

You're super cancelling Rolling Sobat itself because otherwise you won't have enough time to cancel into Climax, and even if you did the combo would be hit harder by damage scaling.
